💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in budget guesthouses near Courtallam Falls (₹800-1200/night) instead of resort areas, and eat at local Tamil eateries where meals cost ₹80-150 per person compared to tourist restaurants charging 3-4x more.
📅 October to February is ideal when temperatures range from 20-28°C and monsoon rains create spectacular waterfall flows. Avoid May-June when heat peaks at 38°C and July-September brings heavy rainfall that can disrupt travel plans.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa as Tenkasi is located within India. Simply carry your valid passport or Aadhaar card for domestic travel identification.
